If you connect the brown wire to positive it will bypass the switch and everything will work for the time being.

By kz1991: From the positive terminals, I run two wires to each coil , and where do I connect them to the coil? Or yellow/red wire?
It helps to mention what motorcycle you have. I'm assuming its the csr, hence the wiring diagram in my previous reply.

The 79 650-SR is pretty much a completely different motorcycle than the CSR & the wiring diagram is going to be different.
Does your motorcycle have the stock ignition switch, handlebar control, wire harness & points ignition?
The SR came with points ignition, so the ign wiring is going to be different than the CSR. The 650B wiring is probably a closer match.
